katikat | On DVD: New Year's Eve

Pretty much in the vein of St Valentine's Day, an anthology of stories, all happening at once. So many stars! Wow, just so many! And just like Bradley Cooper's story was the red string woven into St Valentine's Day and it wasn't resolved until the very end of the movie, in New Year's Eve, it was Josh Duhamel's story, the story of Sam who was looking for the woman he had met on New Year's Eve the year before, that was the last one resolved... and the reveal, who the woman actually was, was so surprising! I just loved it because it pushed one of my buttons - older woman/younger man.

Also, the blooper reel running during the after credits was hilarious! I especially loved the bit with Josh Duhamel and Hilary Swank - who played a couple in another movie! - because they really wanted to have a kissing scene in this movie, so they filmed one and added it to the blooper reel. Aww...
